Mount Vernon & Sarcasm.
Visited Mount Vernon today with a new friend from Council.
Much fun was had, sarcasm exchanged, and general merriment made.
Highlights:
- “Welcome to Mount Vernon Airlines…”
- George Washington was a 4-Her ahead of his time… he even planted clover to aid in crop rotation!
- “Please do not photograph George Washington’s dentures.”
- “Your Exalted High Mightiness… Mr. President.”
- Cavies and sheep. ‘Nuff said.
- The two primary house slaves at Mount Vernon… names in common with folks I know now, in (dare I say it) somewhat similar positions.
- A Dargan’s-style Irish pub in Old Town Alexandria. Need I say more?
